In-Track Sampling
The TRITON Extreme allows an external audio source (a guitar or mic for example) to be recorded
(sampled) at the same time during song playback, to create event data in an empty sequence track. For
the following, you can either utilize the microphone used in the previous sampling section, or use
another source such as a guitar (if a passive-type guitar is used, send it through a preamp or effect
processor first in order to sample at an appropriate level…

Resampling a song as a WAV file to CompactFlash
You can easily resample your songs with the TRITON Extreme, (sequence and all in-track samples) as
WAV files to a CompactFlash card, or via the USB A-port to an external drive. And with a USB CD-R/RW
drive, the WAV files you’ve re-sampled can be burned to an audio CD. For the following exercise, use
the song you’ve been working with in the previous In-Track Sampling section…
IMPORTANT!
Before you insert a CompactFlash card into the Extreme’s card slot…
STOP!!!
Make sure that the
